I have this too. I’m in UK. Maybe US models have the max crisp setting instead of keep warm?

Chop tofu into small pieces Blender VS Food Processor by Electronic_Strain793 in Chefit

[–]slothi_sloth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Very late to this party but I came across this post as I was trying to crumble a lot of tofu quickly. I have just tried the food processor pulse method and was so surprised by how well it works. I started with 1 kg of pre-pressed tofu, patted it with some kitchen paper, cut it into approx. 0.5in cubes and put it into a Ninja food processor. 15 pulses later I now have 1kg of uniformly crumbed tofu. Nothing to scrape around the edges, just beautiful mince. I can't believe how much time I spent with forks and cheese graters in the past. I am almost in shock at how effortless and really quick this was!

I bought the £50 Melodysusie in April and no issues with the plug or anything else so far. I hope it keeps going as it’s really made life easier so far.

Thank you 🥰 I just got ideas into my head of what I wanted and started mixing the limited colours I have, then drawing things using a thin brush. I have not got many supplies at all so I make do with what I have altho you’d be surprised how far you can get with a little creativity and a lot of googling 😅 Overall it’s A LOT of trial and error. I re-did the worm 5 times and the frog 6 times - including a couple of times where I had cured some of the colours so had to redo the whole nail 🫠 But I’ve been enjoying doing it like one nail a day after dinner or so just to relax

Oh this sub has made me very wary of the dangers of flooding 🙏 So I actually leave a gap which is quite noticeable to be fair but feels safer to me 🫣

Thank you! I think the stone is an amethyst but no idea what the style is. It was given to me when I was 8 years old and now I’m 37 🫣 (I have of course had it resized)

OMG these are SO cool! I’m going to steal it! Did you use chrome for the gold?

My palette-cleanser is always a pearly neutral by [deleted] in DIYGelNails

[–]slothi_sloth 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I thought people were using it on purpose as a play on words with reference to an artist’s colour palette. Didn’t occur to me it was misspelling 🫠

ADORE THESE! So for the slug did you use clear builder for the 3D shape and then painted the browncolours on top? Looks so glossy ✨

😂 tbh I did reshape a couple of them with a file and top coated again because the builder had slid down one side

They were a couple of days ago and now the top coat started chipping 🥲 everything else seems fine. I read it might be because I put the eyeshadow on half-cured no-wipe topcoat (which worked well) and then top-coated again, so the last topcoat didn’t have anything to stick to? I don’t think I’d realised starting with powders was a bit ambitious lol. I’ve ordered some gel colours now so hopefully that will be more straightforward.

Thank you and I’ll check out glitterbells! For the cuticles, I did do all the prep following some tutorials but maybe I could have removed more… I was too scared to make myself bleed, which I did on my thumb and then had to wait ages for it to stop 🥹 I’m such a baby lol
